Eddie Howe

[The Prophet]

I do find it amusing that absolutely no one had a clue that he'd signed a contract extension, but they're aware he's open to the England job.

If there's one criticism of Howe, it's that he demands constant intensity.

 

I'd like to see England implement Howe's press in the heat and humidity of USA and Mexico 2026. Especially after the players have been flogged to bits by their clubs all seasons. How many times did we say "we look knackered" last season? Imagine England. 

 

Silly talk on multiple levels this man

Eddie would be ripped to shreds by the scum media, bringing up his involvement with Saudi Arabia.  Leave well alone and fulfill your success here at Newcastle.............. is my advice.

Has HTT been gone that long?

Just a thought experiment, how does Howe set up an England team?

Fuck, he's on his bike already:

 

Spoiler

Disappointing that both the club and Howe haven't come out with an official statement within my self imposed timescale.

Magnetic roundels on a scaled down table topped sized pitch made of a light weight metal.

Absolutely love this bloke.

"wE nEeD hOwe!!!!111eleven"

 

Funny, considering last year fans of other clubs were telling us we need to sack Howe to move to the next level.

[Miggys First Goal]

[TBG]

And some of our fans were saying the same

This thread is like the opposite of the transfer thread, open it ever hour or so hoping not to see an embedded tweet.

maybe eddie would be intelligent enough to realise to cant do that in such heat and alter his tactics accordingly.

ffs he's not an idiot.

 

anyway he's not leaving.

The only worry I have is, Howe knows he’s arguably one bad run away from the sack. At which point the England job will be elsewhere. Young family more time at home and a shot at the World Cup. Could see the sense in it.

I don't think he's one bad run away from the sack. 

 

One disastrous season, maybe. 

[Skeletor]

He also likes being away from his family as much as possible  That break between Bournemouth and us must have nearly killed him.

Aye see that's the main reason why I don't think he'd take the England job at this stage of his career... if you listen to interviews and podcasts hes done he's obsessed with football, and the day to day management of a football club, think he would go hate not having to work every day

Quote

Part of the importance of [sporting director] Paul [Mitchell] coming in with Eddie, is to let Eddie do the strengths he’s got … take away from him some of the things that if it was up to Eddie, he would spend all his time and every waking hour on.

 

What we have to do is channel Eddie onto what he does best and that is on the grass, with that he is phenomenal in terms of putting that team together.

 

Hmmmmm

[Dr Venkman]

On this 'secret contract' I recall it being fairly widely reported that he had signed an extension but the term was never revealed. Am I thinking of an earlier contract? Summer before last? I'm sure it wasn't that long ago.

Yeah, he signed a ‘new’ contract in 2022. The details weren’t specifically reported other than it being “long-term”.

 

So you would suspect this latest one wouldn’t have been too much about increasing the length, I’d guess more at giving him a pay rise in return for giving the club more security should anyone (the FA) come calling.
